Skids!

Thanks to the Exec team for putting this on again. No small mission for sure. Eric, Tats, Terry, Dave, Anna, and all the,other timing and BBQ Volunteers, thank you for your efforts. Thank you for all who stuck round to clean up too. Could have used a few more hands at the end of the day IMO.

Was a great day, with split conditions.

Spun a bearing............... in the air con compressor :P was happy to get back out after a short interlude.

Pics and vids please!

Well said, massive thanks to all the volunteers and the exec team responsible!!! One of the best events I have been too!!

The atmosphere was fantastic and there were some guys putting on a good show!!!

I hope the guys with issues got home safely, I sure know how they feel :/ me and Texi don't have a good past :P

Destroyed some tyres, met some new faces and had a great day....

Thanks to the organisers today, it was a great run, hassle free and quick turnarounds. Also thanks because it must have sucked standing out in the rain in the arvo.

And....especially thanks to Nick and family for providing some juice last night....we made it home with 8% battery left (HEAPS!)

Wicked day, awesome skids, great company.

Unfortunately my SD card crapped itself in the gopro so I couldn't hook it up to anyones car but I did manage to get a few vids from the starting grid with another camera so I'll post them up soon

Can't wait until the next one so I can get out there and have some fun

    • Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.
    • That's some good input mate. Nice.
    • So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.
    • Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on
    • Just did this job on my 32 with the boost doc kit. was quite simple to fit, hardest part was getting the rubber bungs back on the firewall. does anyone know how the heater will work now without the flap in the bend? Will I just have a heater on 24/7 now?
